Rather, Aiden could feel the complex emotions swirling within each one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despair. Helplessness. Confusion. Fear... but above all else, trust and hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How many human figures were there here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden couldn’t count them all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had to describe it, it was like a sudden heavy rainstorm. Every drop of rain that hit the ground turned into a human figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zoey!\" Aiden took a deep breath and whispered her name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zoey’s small body was completely swallowed up by these human figures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden had no idea what was happening; he could only try to figure out how to get Zoey back to normal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what happened next made Aiden’s eyes widen to their absolute limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, all the human figures spoke in unison:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This moment left Aiden completely stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before him stood old men, children, strong men, and tiny, frail kids.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be that all of these people are actually Zoey?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Level 90. Once you reach Level 90, you must come back to the Golden Great Wall again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t stay awake any longer, Aiden. Hurry up, grow strong fast. There is no time...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next instant, Aiden’s vision went black, and he vanished without a trace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he opened his eyes again, he found his body drifting away from the walls of the Golden Great Wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s going on? How did Aiden get out so fast?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah, he’s been inside for less than ten seconds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Jenna lasted for several minutes. Shouldn’t Aiden have lasted even longer?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is weird. Did something go wrong with the baptism process?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I think so too. Otherwise, there’s no way to explain why he only lasted ten seconds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The murmurs of the other talented contestants drifted into Aiden’s ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t care about their gossip. Instead, he stared thoughtfully at the Golden Great Wall before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Captain, are you okay?\" Victor, Nellie, and the others rushed over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden shook his head to signal that he was fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The baptism he had just endured must have been different from what Victor and the others had experienced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other talents had to face all kinds of illusions. Even after their baptism ended, they were all spiritually dazed and in poor condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He, on the other hand, had only had a brief chat with Zoey before his baptism ended.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder where my name will end up,\" Aiden sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had hoped to use this chance to get Alexius to reveal something about the top-tier Miko treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it seemed that Zoey’s appearance had already put the situation a bit out of his control.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But there was no helping it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, Alexius, who had been staring with wide eyes at Aiden the whole time, watched with increasing brightness in his gaze. His smile grew even wider.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ten seconds? That means his baptism ended as soon as it began.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If a newly awakened Reclasser tried this, they’d probably do better than you, Aiden.\" Alexius didn’t hesitate at all. He started walking directly toward Aiden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He relaxed his body, straightened his back, and tilted his chin up slightly. Looking down at Aiden with a calm expression, he continued:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fakes can be created. They can even fool Lord Bella and my teacher.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But the Golden Great Wall’s baptism won’t play along with your lies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aiden, do you want to admit that you murdered innocent children to boost your soul strength? Or do you want to keep denying it until I finish my investigation, only to regret it and beg for mercy?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Alexius had regained the confidence that was uniquely his before Aiden even arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden wasn’t too bothered by Alexius’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Grudge Heart was proof enough of everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only reason for the secrecy was to protect himself from high-level Reclassers who had harmed children and might try to assassinate him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the very start, Alexius was destined to act like a clown, putting on a silly show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you please stop?\" Victor took a deep breath and spoke quickly. \"The Captain has already been proven. Lord Bella has recognized him. Maybe there was an accident with the baptism that caused this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexius glanced at him dismissively, frowned, and replied with extreme impatience:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"An accident? The Golden Great Wall’s baptism has never had an accident.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aiden lasted less than ten seconds. This means he is not as promising as you all think.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And besides, what right do you have to interrupt the conversation between me and Aiden?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he finished speaking, Alexius’s imposing pressure suddenly exploded. An invisible shockwave knocked Victor back several steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden’s eyes instantly turned cold. He drew the Abyss Flame Demon staff immediately, aiming it straight at Alexius.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Alexius started to laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You seem to have forgotten my power, haven’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aiden’s expression remained calm, with no hint of panic on his face. He slowly replied:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? Even if you’re strong, so what? You’ll kill me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My strength isn’t as high as yours, but that doesn’t mean I lose the courage to draw my weapon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Choosing to fight when you know you’re weaker is often an irrational choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they were inside the Golden Great Wall, surrounded by many divine powerhouses. How dare Alexius actually try to hurt him?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, Aiden didn’t want to just sit back and watch Victor get bullied for speaking up for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph, foolish. The captain you trust is actually a despicable man who uses any means to boost his soul strength. You defending him like this is truly hopeless stupidity.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexius glanced at Victor with pure disgust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hostility toward Aiden came from two places. First, he refused to believe Aiden’s talent and potential were truly greater than his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second, he hated, even hated, those Reclassers who cruelly tortured innocent children, as well as those who ran away from enemies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He wouldn’t even spare his own younger brother, Cassian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m foolish? You’re the one who’s truly stupid.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it not because the captain did something you couldn’t, that you’ve been targeting him all along?\" Victor replied without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexius nodded. \"So what if it is?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Except for Selene, no one’s talent surpasses mine. That is a fact!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And before long, I will survive the divine ascension tribulation and become a divine powerhouse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexius said this with strong confidence in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nellie, standing behind Aiden, saw Alexius’s expression and frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something about this scene felt familiar. It seemed like it had happened before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nellie thought hard and realized it was exactly the mindset she had when she first met Aiden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as arrogant, just as high and mighty, just as filled with overconfidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what was the result?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before long, all that confidence would be shattered by Aiden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this, Nellie sighed and said slowly, \"You might not understand. What seems impossible for some might be a miracle to others, but for the Captain, it’s something he can do without any effort.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anyway, saying this to you now is useless. You won’t listen. You’ll only believe me when you start doubting yourself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nellie remembered her own past mindset. She knew clearly that no matter what she said, Alexius wouldn’t change his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure enough, after Nellie finished, Alexius just glanced at her and replied casually,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like you’re a fool too. What good is the failure and regret of a fool?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nellie’s expression instantly turned to pure exasperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly raised her right hand and flipped the bird, saying bluntly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine. I’m looking forward to you becoming the fool you claim to be.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are huge gaps between people, and an even bigger gap between people and monsters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Aiden is a monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The baptism must have gone wrong. Let the Captain try the baptism again, absolutely...\" Nellie turned to Maximus beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, alright, calm down, everyone calm down,\" Maximus said quickly, rushing to speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He, too, found it hard to believe that Aiden could only last less than ten seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was way too low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maximus quickly raised his right hand, pointing at the wall covered in names, and said fast,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let’s just find Aiden’s name first. Maybe he passed the baptism but just has a very low rank. That’s possible.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said that, but deep down, Maximus knew the chances were slim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, all the geniuses in the room, along with Maximus and Alexius, turned their heads to look at the very bottom of the distant wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Too bad, Aiden’s name isn’t here,\" Maximus said, shaking his head with a heavy sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexius shot Aiden a look full of disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just to be safe, he continued to check the other spots carefully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few seconds passed, and he still couldn’t find Aiden’s name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That meant Aiden had absolutely failed the Golden Great Wall baptism!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, a brilliant golden light suddenly blazed from the wall of the Golden Great Wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Alexius’s eyes instantly snapped toward the golden light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took just one look, and his face froze in shock. He instinctively stepped back, muttering in a low voice:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How is this possible!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1547,"2026-05-29T15:45:47.907Z","2026-06-01T04:29:39.035Z",1,"novelbin.me","d31401c12e856d85c64ee9928dbdeaffefea9b89e830d70b71f4ff82cf7280e6","everyone-s-class-one-effort-10-000x-bonus-reward-chapter-321","everyone-s-class-one-effort-10-000x-bonus-reward-chapter-319",379,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feveryone-s-class-one-effort-10-000x-bonus-reward-cover.jpg"]
